I had to write a paper on Herbert West Reanimator publications vs 1985 Stuart Gordon Film, and I had to restrain myself from calling out the racism of the publications and the sexism/misogyny of the film.

What is it with souls fans and being unable to draw their own conclusions? I'd put a 20 down that i could convince you Shadow of Moses was real if i spoke in a low and slow voice with highschool presentation inflection.

Nodens: Welcome to the “Fuck Nyarlathotep” Club.

Randolph Carter: A meeting where we discuss the many ways in which the Crawling Chaos has tormented us and fucked up our lives.

Mahiro Yasaka: *awkwardly stands up* Uh, I think there’s been a misunderstanding.

Kurou Daijuuji: No, there hasn’t. Sit down.

Taking a break from writing a scenario by making memes about said scenario (I'm very normal about this project.)

"verlaine saves the day" "yosano saves the day" no. lovecraft comes back and saves the day.

citing all my sources of inspiration for Nikodemus would mean unironically putting Misfits 2009-2013 at the top of the list

Godzilla vs Cthulhu, When a Titan and Great Old One Meets, Does the Phrase “Death May Die.” Matter Anymore?

Everything you want to know about Godzilla vs Cthulhu: Death May Die is reviewed here, and how you can get it (along with other titles in this universe) are answered here. #horror #comicbook #cthulhu @cmongames @SourcePtPress

No knowledge of the game is required to understand Godzilla vs Cthulhu: Death May Die. This comic book released by CMON Games is only sold at specific comic conventions, and as for whether there’ll be a market version, I’m doubtful. This showdown is a concept many fans have asked for. While I’m glad someone has taken up the challenge to write up a story concept of seeing these two fight one…

Played the first act of Source of Madness. This is a INCREDIBLE game, its AI-assisted visual style is very atmospheric and creates a sense of cyclopean horror. Many games get tagged "Lovecraftian", but don't convey the feel of the book, and this game gave me that feeling for the first time (in game format) in the first hour of play.. Shapeless and hybrid creatures are fascinating. Gameplay isn't perfect, but the game has quite a large variety of weapons, in the form of visuals in most. Protagonist is a mage after all... I tried to choose screenshots without spoilers, but the game is really extremely weird, and in a good or bad way - it's up to you to decide. The game feels unfinished, clumsy, but I can feel the soul and love of the developer in it. You should at least give it a chance!

It's probably a cold take, but 'Shadow Over Innsmouth' isn't a very good book. It's filled with textual and subtexual racism, and at least half the book is different guys expositing at the main character at length. Don't get me wrong, some of the lore it adds to the mythos is neat. The setting and the premise of the book are fine to an extent. "Strange fishing town where there's a cult, the people look frog-like as they get older, and theres plenty of mysterious goings on" is perfectly fine and dare i say a good hook. On god tho, the handling of it is so sloppy and at the top of the list of most blatantly "just H.P. Lovecraft being racist" stories.

Mental this is like a famous one of his. It's not good 👎

Time Eats All in a nutshell

Pickman: I can excuse murder, but I draw the line at psychological torture!

Thurber, who is bleeding out on the basement floor due to having just been stabbed by Carter multiple times: ..You can excuse MURDER?!
